Lips x kisses x colours

Sorry for the long hiatus. I miss blogging, but I've been so caught up with uni works and job recently. Oh and I spent my last weekend in Sydney for our anniversary, the most memorable weekend ever.
I've got a bad infection on my eyelid during the trip and it was swollen like the size of a bee sting on my right eye. My boyfriend was really understanding (he should be :p) throughout the trip and it got less swollen day by day and it was almost diminished by Monday, which is the date of our anniversary. I was lucky I guess, and good thing my fringe was right parting so I could cover my eyes using my hair during the days.

I am never really a lipstick person. Yes I do own a few lipsticks but never could find a favourite one that actually suits me. I've always wanted a bright red/pink/coral lip color but I still couldn't find any that I love. And I'm sure I'm not the only person that is facing the same problem. Good thing I found the Dior Addict Lip Glow, it acts like a tinted lip balm that enhances your natural lip colour. I am already using my third one so far, as you can see how much I love it. ;)

I mentioned I owned a few lipsticks, but I rarely use them. Why? I have no idea, I guess I'm just not confident enough to wear them out. I have always admire the girls that wears bright lipstick out for different occasions, I just couldn't. So I decided to try something new, and well since Priceline was having a massive sale, I went and bought the Maybelline Colour Whisper in no. 45. It's like a red colour that is in the middle of orange and pink. I spent like 30 mins trying on different shades on my hands and finally decided on that colour. To be honest, I chose that one because it has only one left at the counter. It's a natural human instinct okay? :p Another colour is YSL Rouge Volupte. I bought this last year after exams as a gift to myself. Because of my love for hot pink, I insisted to get a pink shade. I tried it and thought it looked nice, I don't know if it's the counter lady's non stop praising or just me, I bought it right away. And I've only worn it less than 5 times. Great. even though I love the texture, I just didn't really have the confidence to wear it out. :(

Other lip colours are the normal ones, like a light coral shade, nude coral, yes I love coral. Because my skin tone goes with coral better than pink. :)
